FLIAN (LESSER FELIS SAPIEN)

These rare cat-like humanoid share many genetic traits with the smaller cats (Felis Familiaris) and humans (Homo Sapiens), but are a separate and distinct species whose origins date back to before recorded time.

COMBAT
Most FLIAN fight only when they have to. As a society, they hold life as sacred in all its forms. But when combat is necessary, they show no hesitation. They approach combat much the same way as they do hunting. Stalking and striking without warning.

SOCIETY
FLIAN live as a remote community without cities, villages, or centralized areas for government or trade. They know little of the outside world, everything they want or need is found within their forrest home. FLIAN have kept track of bloodlines and historical events for years beyond number. Engraved into thick ironwood sheets, written in their age old dialect of Sylvan and enchanted to protect them from the ravages of decay. The events they record are, almost exclusively, only within the realm of their rather secluded homeland. Among these events, are recorded those rare few who dare venture the outside realms, and far fewer, those who return home. There hasn't been an adventurer born to the FLIAN in 9 generations, there are whispers. FLIAN follow general moral guidelines, not written laws. Local elders are consulted to mediate deadlocked disputes, their decisions are respected and implemented.
